Inclinometer Setup Procedure for type “G” Inclinometer
Requirements:

Digital level

Possibly two people.
This procedure must be performed after the transducer is installed, and the processor is in its final
position and permanently mounted.
This setup procedure must be repeated if:

The Inclinometer suffers any position change inside the Processor Unit. (Even the smallest of
position change will upset the alignment),

The processor Unit is moved,

The processor computer hard disk is reformatted, or;

New software is installed.
Inclinometer Mechanical Setup
For accurate Inclinometer alignment the vessel should be in port with the vessel motionless.
The Inclinometer is located inside the Processor Unit on an adjustable mounting arm. The label on the
back of the inclinometer reads “This Side Stern” and the inclinometer type which, for this case, is type
“G”.
Using the adjustable mounting arm, position the inclinometer so the “This Side Stern” Label is aligned
with the vessel’s stern as accurately as possible. While do this align the bubble, on the top of the
Inclinometer, to the vertical position. (Tighten adjustable arm firmly)
If Inclinometer is not aligned correctly the stabilization (TR(Track) & SR(Search) Modes) will not be
effective.
Inclinometer Alignment
Once the Inclinometer has been correctly positioned according to the description above, turn on the
Sonar.
Wait at least 10 minutes while the sonar is operating before performing the next procedures to allow
the Inclinometer to fully stabilize.
1) Using the SYS (System) Panel, select the Inclinometer type to “type G”.
2) Using the OPR (Operate) Panel select the MC (Mode Control) to TR (Track Mode).
3) Selecting the SYS (System) Panel will display the “Bow” and “Port” readouts for the Inclinometer
angle.

A positive Bow angle indicates that the bow is angled up and a negative Bow angle indicates that
the bow is angled down.

A positive Port angle indicates that the Port is angled up and a negative Port angle indicates that
the Port is angled down.
